– The perfect time to arrive at the airport: “The best time to arrive at the airport is as late as feasibly possible, with just enough time to make it to your plane, says mathematician Jordan Ellenberg.” Seriously, this has been my theory for YEARS. Years, I tell you. And now science is now on my side! (Detractors call this theory “insane”.)

Marty and I almost overslept for our flight to Florida last summer – we made it with ten minutes to spare; however, it was that moment that got me thinking about why we arrive so early when we can just as easily arrive a half hour early or less and still make our flight. Columbus is a big airport but it isn’t the biggest; I think I’d worry about time a bit more at the larger airports with more traffic!
